Does Cinnaholic consider lease terms a factor that could impact my franchise's success?

According to the 2025 Cinnaholic Franchise Disclosure Document, securing suitable lease terms and maintaining possession of the franchised site are important factors for a franchisee's success, especially concerning renewal.

The FDD states that to renew the franchise for an additional 10-year period, a franchisee must provide Cinnaholic with evidence that they have the right to remain in possession of the franchised site or can secure a suitable alternative site that Cinnaholic finds acceptable. This indicates that Cinnaholic places importance on the franchisee's ability to maintain a stable location, as changing locations can disrupt business and customer relationships.

This requirement ensures that franchisees consider the long-term viability of their location and lease terms. It also protects Cinnaholic's brand by ensuring that the franchise continues to operate in an appropriate location that meets their standards, even upon renewal.

For a prospective Cinnaholic franchisee, this means carefully negotiating lease terms with options for renewal or extensions is crucial. Additionally, maintaining a good relationship with the lessor is important to facilitate smooth renewal processes. Failure to secure the site for the renewal term could prevent the franchisee from renewing their franchise agreement, potentially losing their business.
